Programs and Services
The complex issues involved in leading a cultural nonprofit today can challenge even the most skilled management team.
Using our first-hand experience in the arts, and working with faculty from leading business and graduate schools, we
deliver executive-level programs that help you find new opportunities, manage the people
and resources needed for success, and lead your organization toward its mission. Our unique focus on team-centered
education means your team can use NAS programs as off-site working sessions to build shared skills and realize
key organizational change.
The Business of Arts and Culture is our national series of team-centered seminars. Events are presented in
cities around the country, with highly subsidized tuition and travel costs. Every
session is led by top management faculty, and combines new learning with immediate application of the
ideas to your organization. Read more about the seminars or
